Learn six strategies for turning a pressure situation into an opportunity. In this episode, Judd Hoekstra, coauthor of Crunch Time: How to be Your Best When It Matters Most, talks about the skill of reframing—intentionally thinking about a situation in a new or different way to improve performance. “When faced with a stressful situation, it is normal to have the fight, flight, or freeze reaction. But what you should do is pause and recognize when you are having negative thoughts—then challenge your thinking to have positive thoughts,” Hoekstra explains. Hoekstra offers six tips for putting reframing into practice. The first is to reframe from trying harder to trying easier. Contrary to what many of us have been taught, trying harder under pressure is often counterproductive. Think about your best performances. Were you grinding and full of anxiety? More than likely, you remember your best performances as almost effortless. Trying easier isn’t about being lazy or not trying. It is about throttling back just a little. It’s about taking the tension out of what you’re doing and replacing it with a level of effort that allows you to perform in a relaxed state. The next skill is to reframe from tension to laughter. Humor diffuses pressure better than any pharmaceutical on the market. It momentarily reduces the perceived threat posed by a situation. It also helps generate a sense of control and provides perspective that can help you see dire circumstances with some levity. It also stops cortisol, a stress hormone, in its tracks and releases endorphins—the feel-good neurotransmitters that enhance performance. Reframing from anxiety to taking control is a skill that can be used in any stressful situation that undermines your performance. Instead of setting lofty goals that can be intimidating, set simple, short-term, bite-sized goals that are attainable. Then you can take control of the situation and perform at a higher level. Fighting our own doubts is difficult, but it is possible to reframe from doubt to confidence. “When I’m making a presentation but I’m filled with doubt, I think back to a similar situation where I performed at my best level. I visualize that performance—I actually relive the event—to build my confidence and remember that I’ll be using the same tried and true skills that I’ve successfully used before,” says Hoekstra. Reframing from failure to a learning moment is one of the most useful skills to consider when trying to deliver your best performance. Whether you are an athlete, business person, actor, parent, or teacher, we can all learn from our mistakes. Hoekstra shares how Garry Ridge, CEO of WD-40, has banned the word mistake from the company’s culture. Ridge prefers the term learning moment. People are afraid of making mistakes, but having a learning moment is an opportunity. He asks people to think about what they’ve learned and to share that information with others. The last skill is to reframe from prepared to overprepared. This skill is especially helpful in pressure situations. A normal amount of preparation is fine, but it won’t serve you well when the pressure is high. Overpreparation allows you to operate instinctively even when things are not going as planned. “Overpreparation is what allowed Michael Phelps to set a world record in the 2008 Olympics even when his goggles were leaking and he couldn’t see the edge of the pool,” says Hoekstra. Overpreparation is the skill that allows you to overcome the unthinkable. The best thing to remember is that people everywhere, in all kinds of professions, are using reframing skills successfully. They are as helpful to a CEO or athlete as they are to a parent trying to have a positive interaction with their children.

He was the Oakland Athletics’ pitching coach during the famed Moneyball era and has served as a coach with the New York Mets, Chicago White Sox, Pittsburgh Pirates, and Milwaukee Brewers. He is currently director of pitching development with the Baltimore Orioles. He holds a combined degree in psychology and art. He and Judd Hoekstra are the authors of Crunch Time: How To Be Your Best When It Matters Most. www.rickpetersoncoaching.comGrowing your business with Donna EvansDonna uses her extensive corporate, higher education and non-profit experience in strategic planning, career coaching, human resources, organizational development, community and business advancement and marketing and communications helping professionals realize their market and growth potential.

Pitching coach Rick Peterson knows how to help when the heat is on. His first trick is learning to "reframe." This means simply “finding different ways of interpreting a less-than-ideal situation.” In other words, every tough situation can be seen as an opportunity for making something great happen. For example, when a pitcher walks a batter, then next batter can represent an opportunity to make two outs with one pitch. His next tip is to overprepare. Practice, practice, practice! Prepare for every situation possible, including practicing amidst chaos. Practice until you've mastered your skill. Peterson talks about Michael Phelps's coach who used to hide or break Michael's goggles just before races so Michael had to learn to swim his best even in less-than-ideal circumstances. One of his best secrets for diffusing stress is to "try easy." When it's “crunch time,” don't try harder. Try easy! When you're under pressure, don't try to be better than you actually are; just perform the best you did when you were practicing. It also helps to keep the laughter coming. Store at least a couple of funny stories in your memory bank. Then, when you're under stress, recall these stories. You'll find yourself laughing rather than choking under pressure. Finally, try time traveling. Focus on the outcome rather than on the process. In other words, “Just hit the glove.” Settle your mind down by taking your thoughts back to a time when you performed at your best. Relive your best performances. For example, Peterson coached Barry Zito to go back in his mind to a time during spring training when he gave up only one hit in six innings.

Judd Hoekstra got into a downward spiral. He got to the point where he was putting emphasis in the wrong area. It created a huge negative cycle for him and he didn’t even want to show up. That’s when Judd decided to reframe the negative thoughts running through his mind. Listen as Judd shares how you can get over the hump.

Brian and Roger talked to former Mets pitching coach Rick Peterson about what really happened with the Scott Kazmir/Victor Zambrano trade, how pitchers like Noah Syndergaard and Steven Matz should handle their injuries, his thoughts on the physics of pitching, how humor and "reframing" pressure situations helped him reach the likes of Jason Isringhausen and Jim Abbott, his childhood ambitions, and more. The boys of Good Fundies also turned the METCON machine back on and brought back "Soup or Savior" to prematurely judge Tyler Pill. There was also a deep dive into the mailbag where they determined what Michael Conforto's "Judge's Chambers" equivalent would be called, if Rene Rivera and Wilmer Flores could beat a pile of dirt in a foot race, and more. Highlights from that segment included two very good Tommy Milone questions and some Beaumont, Texas trivia. You can read more about Rick Peterson at rickpetersonpitching.com. The book he wrote with Judd Hoekstra, "Crunch Time: How to Be Your Best When It Matters Most", is available at Amazon.com and elsewhere. Thank you to Andrew Lowden for the music.
